Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

    “This morning, the Province newspaper website is still carrying a widely condemned opinion piece that’s been scrubbed from the Vancouver Sun website.”

    “The jury is out,” he writes. “But the minimum requirement is that we say goodbye to diversity, tolerance and inclusion if we wish to be a society that can rebuild the trust we used to have in one another and start accepting a new norm for immigration policy—compatibility, cohesion and social trust.”

  4. Exclusive–American Airlines Mechanic Accused of Sabotaging Flight Came to U.S. from Iraq (breitbart, Sep 7, 2019)

    “An American Airlines mechanic who is accused of sabotaging a commercial flight originally arrived in the United States from Iraq, Breitbart News has confirmed.
    On Friday, federal court records revealed that Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani allegedly tampered with a navigation system on a plane filled with 150 passengers set to take off from Miami, Florida and bound for Nassau, the Bahamas on July 17

    Federal prosecutors allege that Alani put foam glue inside part of the plane’s navigation system. The alleged tampering was captured on surveillance footage that co-workers said showed Alani driving up to the part of the plane before takeoff and working on the compartment for seven minutes.

    Alani told federal officials that he had no intention of harming the passengers on the flight and that he merely wanted the flight to be cancelled so he could receive overtime work in the midst of contract negotiations between his mechanics’ union and American Airlines.

    A law enforcement official exclusively confirmed to Breitbart News that Alani first arrived in the U.S. from Iraq sometime in the mid-1980s. Alani came to the country as the spouse of an American citizen and eventually was able to become a naturalized American citizen himself in 1992.

    Federal officials have charged Alani with interfering with an aircraft’s navigation system and he faces up to 20 years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami.”

    It further urged the separatists to return all captured facilities to forces loyal to Saudi-allied ex-Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.

  9. Egypt Sentences 11 Brotherhood Members to Life for Prison Breaks (aawsat, Sep 7, 2019)
    https://aawsat.com/english/home/article/1891606/egypt-sentences-11-brotherhood-members-life-prison-breaks

    “An Egyptian court on Saturday sentenced 11 people to life in prison — including the head of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood, Mohammed Badie — after a retrial on charges related to mass prison breaks at the height of the 2011 popular uprising.

    The retrial was related to a case rooted in the escape of 20,000 inmates from Egyptian prisons in during the 2011 uprising. The verdict cannot be appealed.

    The Cairo criminal court also sentenced eight others to 15 years in prison on the same charges, which include orchestrating prison breaks and undermining national security by conspiring with foreign groups: the Palestinian group Hamas and Lebanese Hezbollah party.

    This is the latest of several life sentences for Badie. He is also been sentenced to death in separate trials held after his arrest in 2013 following the ouster of president Mohammed Morsi, a Brotherhood leader, amid nationwide protests against his one-year rule.

    Morsi was a defendant in the prison-break case, but he collapsed in a courtroom and died while appearing in a separate trial in June.

    The court also acquitted eight others.

    In June 2015, the Cairo Criminal Court issued sentences of death and life imprisonment against Morsi and other key figures in the Muslim Brotherhood. However, in November 2016, the Court of Cassation, Egypt’s final recourse for appeals in criminal cases, annulled the sentence and ordered a retrial of the defendants.”

  11. Trump says he canceled peace talks with Taliban over attack (reuters, Sep 7, 2019)
    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-afghanistan-mckenzie/trump-says-he-canceled-peace-talks-with-taliban-over-attack-idUSKCN1VS0MX

    “U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday said he canceled peace talks with Afghanistan’s Taliban leaders after the insurgent group said it was behind an attack in Kabul that killed an American soldier and 11 other people.

    Trump said he had planned a secret meeting with the Taliban’s “major leaders” on Sunday at a presidential compound in Camp David, Maryland. Trump said he also planned to meet with Afghanistan’s president.

    But Trump said he immediately called the talks off when the insurgents said they were behind the attack.

    “If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway,” Trump said on Twitter.

    Taliban fighters, who now control more territory than at any time since 2001, launched fresh assaults on the northern cities of Kunduz and Pul-e Khumri over the past week and carried out two major suicide bombings in the capital Kabul.

    One of the blasts, a suicide attack in Kabul on Thursday, took the life of U.S. Army Sergeant 1st Class Elis A. Barreto Ortiz, 34, from Puerto Rico, bringing the number of American troops killed in Afghanistan this year to 16.

    A spike in attacks by Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan has been “particularly unhelpful” to peace efforts there, a senior U.S. military commander said on Saturday as he visited neighboring Pakistan, where many Taliban militants are based.

    U.S. Marine General Kenneth McKenzie, who oversees American troops in the region, declined to comment on the diplomatic negotiations themselves.

    Earlier this week, U.S. and Taliban negotiators struck a draft peace deal which could lead to a drawdown in U.S. troops from America’s longest war. But a wave of Taliban violence has cast a long shadow over the deal.

    “It is particularly unhelpful at this moment in Afghanistan’s history for the Taliban to ramp up violence,” McKenzie, head of U.S. Central Command, told reporters traveling with him.

    McKenzie said for the peace process to move forward, “all parties should be committed to an eventual political settlement” which, in turn, should result in reduced violence.

    “If we can’t get that going in, then it is difficult to see the parties are going to be able to carry out the terms of the agreement, whatever they might or might not be,” McKenzie said.

    Under the draft accord, thousands of U.S. troops would be withdrawn over the coming months in exchange for guarantees Afghanistan would not be used as a base for militant attacks on the United States and its allies.

    However, a full peace agreement to end more than 18 years of war would depend on subsequent “intra Afghan” talks. The Taliban have rejected calls for a ceasefire and instead stepped up operations across the country.

    NEW CIVIL WAR?
    For Afghans, the Taliban’s recent escalation of attacks has underscored fears it may be impossible to reach a stable settlement following any complete U.S. withdrawal.

    Many have worried about a fracture along ethnic and regional lines, with Persian-speaking Tajiks and Hazaras from the north and west against southern and eastern Pashtuns, the group that have supplied most of Afghanistan’s rulers and where the Taliban draw most support. Memories of the 1990s civil war are vivid.

    Some Taliban are based in neighboring Pakistan, where McKenzie held talks on Saturday with a top Pakistani general. More talks are scheduled for Sunday.

    McKenzie said he did not know whether any of the planning for the recent wave of attacks in Afghanistan came from Pakistan-based militants.

    But McKenzie commended Pakistan for supporting the peace efforts in Afghanistan, in the latest sign of an improvement in long-fraught relations between Washington and Islamabad.

    “A lot of Pakistanis have been killed by militant attacks inside Pakistan. I think Pakistan sees the benefits of a stable Afghanistan,” McKenzie said.”

  12. Bulgaria hands over terror suspect to Turkey (hdn, Sep 7, 2019)

    “Bulgaria on Sept. 7 handed a terror suspect over to Turkey after detaining the individual who tried to illegally cross into the country.

    The suspect, identified by the initials B.G., 40, was detaining by Bulgarian security forces while illegally crossing the border, according to a security source, who asked not to be named due to restrictions on speaking to the media.

    An international travel ban has been imposed on the individual for making PKK terrorist group propaganda and committing various crimes, the source said.

    The suspect was handed over to Turkish security forces in northwestern border province of Edirne where he was remanded pending trial after being referred to a provincial magistracy.

    In its more than 30-year terror campaign against Turkey, the PKK- listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU- has been responsible for the deaths of nearly 40,000 people in Turkey, including many
    children, women, and infants.”

  13. Des fortunes algériennes trouvent refuge au Canada

    La crise politique et sociale qui frappe l’Algérie depuis le 22 février dernier se fait sentir jusqu’au Canada où, depuis le début de l’année, les transferts de capitaux en provenance de ce pays d’Afrique du Nord sont en forte croissance par rapport aux années précédentes, a constaté Le Devoir.

    La préparation à l’exil d’une classe dirigeante confrontée à la contestation populaire en cours expliquerait en partie cette hausse qui inquiète toutefois plusieurs membres de la diaspora : ils craignent que ces transferts ne servent à blanchir de l’argent mal acquis sur le territoire canadien, alors qu’une campagne anticorruption cible plusieurs hauts dirigeants actuellement en Algérie.

    Entre janvier et juillet 2019, plus de 78,6 millions $ ont été envoyés au Canada depuis l’Algérie, selon des chiffres obtenus auprès du Centre d’analyse des opérations et déclarations financières du Canada, qui surveille les télévirements de fonds de plus de 10 000 $ en provenance de l’étranger. Pour les sept premiers mois de l’année, il s’agit de 10 millions de plus que pour l’année 2018 complète, mais également d’une croissance de 50 % des transferts par rapport à 2017. Cette année-là, 52 millions de dollars avaient été transférés au Canada depuis des institutions bancaires algériennes.

    Signe d’une certaine fébrilité, la valeur moyenne des transferts a également explosé en 2019, pour atteindre 405 195 $ par transaction déclarée, contre 187 900 $ et 157 857 $ respectivement en 2018 et 2017. Ce montant représente plus de 26 fois le PIB par habitant en Algérie en 2018, confirmant ainsi que ces transferts sont orchestrés principalement par les plus grosses fortunes du pays. Le Québec est le principal point d’entrée de cet argent. La diaspora algérienne au Canada y est particulièrement bien établie.

    « En période de crise, les transferts d’argent d’un pays vers un autre s’accentuent, c’est toujours le cas, résume Jean-Pierre Vidal, professeur de fiscalité internationale à HEC Montréal. Il s’agit d’argent de dirigeants, de compagnies ou de particuliers qui, craignant la chute de la devise nationale, cherchent à protéger la valeur de leurs avoirs dans une monnaie plus forte et plus stable. »

    Cette augmentation des transferts de capitaux algériens au Canada accompagne l’incertitude qui prévaut en Algérie depuis le 22 février dernier et le début de l’« Hirak », ce mouvement populaire spontané, lancé par la jeunesse, qui réclame le départ des dirigeants algériens actuels, la fin du régime cacique autoritaire et militaire en place et surtout la construction d’une nouvelle Algérie, démocratique et ouverte sur le monde.

    La pression populaire, en forçant le retrait de la vie politique de l’ancien président qui souhaitait se présenter pour un cinquième mandat, malgré sa léthargie induite par un accident cardiovasculaire subi en 2013, a également déclenché une vaste campagne anticorruption. Depuis avril dernier, cette chasse aux corrompus cible plusieurs membres et proches des gouvernements d’Abdelaziz Bouteflika des 20 dernières années et grosses fortunes du pays, dont l’ancien ministre de la Justice et garde des Sceaux Tayeb Louh, l’ancien préfet d’Oran et ex-directeur de la campagne de Bouteflika en 2019, Abdelghani Zaâlane, ou encore l’ancien ministre de l’Énergie Chakib Khelil, placé en détention provisoire ou poursuivi dans des affaires de corruption, de dilapidation de fonds publics ou d’infraction à la législation et à la réglementation en matière de mouvements de capitaux vers l’étranger.

    Une brochette d’entrepreneurs influents ont également été conduits devant les tribunaux : le bonze des travaux publics et ex-président du Forum des chefs d’entreprise d’Algérie Ali Haddad, le géant de l’industrie du transport Mahieddine Tahkout ou encore le président du groupe Condor, spécialiste des télécommunications, Abderrahmane Benhamadi. Ce groupe vend des téléphones mobiles et d’autres produits électroniques aux Algériens avec un nouveau slogan depuis 2015 : « Prenez votre envol. »

    En juin dernier, le député du Nouveau Parti démocratique Pierre-Luc Dusseault, alerté par un citoyen d’origine algérienne vivant dans sa circonscription de Sherbrooke, a écrit au ministre des Finances du Canada, Bill Morneau, pour l’informer de la hausse de ces transferts provenant d’Algérie et pour l’inciter à la plus grande vigilance devant l’augmentation du montant des opérations financières de l’Algérie vers le Canada. « Ces mouvements financiers sont majoritairement faits par la classe politique et dirigeante algérienne actuelle, qui se prépare à un exil imminent », écrit-il dans sa lettre, dont Le Devoir a obtenu copie. « Le peuple algérien est inquiet que le départ du gouvernement et de ses dirigeants se fasse en amenant avec eux […] des fonds publics dilapidés […]. Ces dirigeants corrompus ne devraient pas pouvoir trouver un refuge au Canada pour ces fonds illégitimes. »

    Les mouvements d’argent depuis l’Algérie sont également en croissance depuis le début de l’année vers d’autres pays, dont la France, la Belgique et la Suisse, où le blanchiment de ces sommes issues possiblement de la corruption passerait principalement par des transactions immobilières. Au Canada, les opérations douteuses dans le domaine de l’immobilier font l’objet d’une surveillance particulière, souligne le ministre des Finances, sans plus de détails, puisque les déclarations de transactions immobilières suspectes ne sont pas rendues publiques.

    Les crises qui touchent le pays depuis plusieurs années s’accompagnent immanquablement d’une augmentation des transferts d’argent des citoyens riches vers l’étranger. Ainsi, en 2015, alors que le pays faisait face à une crise économique et politique provoquée par la chute du prix du pétrole, un secteur vital de son économie, plus de 151 millions de dollars ont été transférés au Canada depuis l’Algérie. Le montant moyen des transactions était alors de 374 000 $, soit 30 000 $ de moins qu’en 2019.

    Le mouvement populaire qui ébranle le pouvoir algérien avec des manifestations pacifiques qui font descendre des millions d’Algériens dans les rues chaque vendredi entre dans sa 29e semaine, sans qu’un dénouement soit proche. Lundi, le chef de l’état-major de l’armée, Ahmed Gaïd Salah, l’homme fort du pays depuis la chute de Bouteflika, a annoncé que des élections se tiendront d’ici la fin de l’année. Il prévoit d’ailleurs la convocation du corps électoral le 15 septembre prochain afin de mettre en marche le processus. Une idée largement rejetée par la rue qui, avant toute nouvelle élection, réclame surtout la rédaction d’une nouvelle constitution pour le pays ou bien l’établissement d’un cadre légal instaurant un véritable État de droit dans le pays.

    L’Algérie s’enfonce dans l’instabilité politique, économique et sociale depuis que les élections du 4 juillet ont été reportées sans date précise par le Conseil constitutionnel, les mouvements d’opposition ayant refusé d’y prendre part en raison du cadre toujours construit à la faveur du régime en place.

  15. BBC – Afghanistan War: Trump cancels peace deal with Taliban

    US President Donald Trump says he has cancelled a peace deal with the Taliban.

    Mr Trump tweeted he had been set to meet Afghan President Ashraf Ghani and senior Taliban leaders on Sunday.

    But he cancelled the meeting at his Camp David retreat after the Taliban admitted it carried out a recent attack in Kabul that killed a US soldier.

    US negotiator Zalmay Khalilzad had announced a peace deal “in principle” with the Taliban on Monday.

    As part of the proposed deal, the US would withdraw 5,400 troops from Afghanistan within 20 weeks. However Mr Khalilzad said final approval still rested with Mr Trump.

    The US currently has about 14,000 troops in the country.

    Trump uses Twitter to call off secret meeting with Taliban leaders

    U.S. President Donald Trump used his Twitter account to announce to the world that he has cancelled a secret meeting that was due to take place this weekend at Camp David with Taliban leaders and the president of Afghanistan.

    “Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the major Taliban leaders and, separately, the President of Afghanistan, were going to secretly meet with me at Camp David on Sunday,” Trump tweeted Saturday night.

    He goes on to accuse the Taliban of trying to “build false leverage” by admitting to being behind a recent bombing in Kabul that took the life of American soldier Sgt. 1st Class Elis A. Barreto Ortiz.

    The 34-year-old soldier from Puerto Rico was killed in action when an explosive device detonated near his vehicle on Thursday, said the U.S. Department of Defence.

    According to The Associated Press, the suicide car bombing killed at least 10 civilians as well as a Romanian service member and left 42 people with injuries.

    Ortiz was the fourth U.S. service member killed in the past two weeks in Afghanistan.

    “They were coming to the United States tonight. Unfortunately, in order to build false leverage, they admitted to an attack in Kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers, and 11 other people,” Trump tweeted.

    “I immediately cancelled the meeting and called off peace negotiations. What kind of people would kill so many in order to seemingly strengthen their bargaining position? They didn’t, they only made it worse!”

    “If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway. How many more decades are they willing to fight?”

    The Associated Press reports that Trump has been under pressure from the Afghan government, lawmakers and some members of his administration who mistrust the Taliban and think it’s too early to withdraw American forces. The administration’s diplomat talking to the Taliban leaders for months in recent days said he was on the “threshold” of an agreement with the Taliban aimed at ending America’s longest war.

    The chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee — Eliot Engel — wrote a letter Thursday to Trump’s peace envoy Zalmay Khalilzad, saying: “We want to make sure we are negotiating a peace, not simply a withdrawal.”

    Thursday’s bombing was one of many attacks by the Taliban in recent days during U.S.-Taliban talks.

    The Associated Press reports that it remains unclear if the talks between the U.S. and the Taliban are on pause or actually over, and that the Taliban have previously explained that the increase in attacks are necessary for a strong bargaining stance — a viewpoint that has left many dismayed.

    Trump’s tweets got a reaction from at least one sitting politician. Congressman Eric Swalwell tweeted at Trump on Saturday: “You brought the Taliban to the United States the week of September 11?”
